Our Employment team is made up of lawyers who are experts in labor law & who have also developed a cross-disciplinary approach to the economic & legal issues of the sectors in which our clients operate.
Bird & Bird's Employment Team works closely with the firm's other departments, assists & advises national & international companies, as well as public authorities, on the full range of employment law issues. We regularly lead several large-scale reorganisations & represented our clients in high-stake litigation cases. We assist mainly international groups with a presence in France, on HR transformation projects, cross-border matters, complex employment litigation & matters around work ethics (harassment investigations, working time & burn-out claims, etc.).
Our leitmotiv? To be "facilitators"

Distinguished by our pragmatic advice & efficiency in execution, in close partnership with in house legal and HR, as well as operational teams, the team is well known for proactive support on all employment issues relating to local & international corporate & commercial transactions, in particular M&A, business transfers, LBO & VC transactions.
Thanks to our distinctive sectoral approach, we have specific industry sector expertise in all areas of activity, including the life sciences, tech & comms & digital economy sectors, and have developed cutting-edge knowledge of these markets & their specific HR issues.
